She was the rain
dancing in puddles
She was trouble
Me
with the games
I played was
a puzzle
But I loved her
it's true
Now I know
what love can do
Once we
were young
And lived
dangerous
But the rains
poured down
They started
to change us
We both grew
so ancient
Singing in circles
around her
Were golden
cherubs of sorrow
I tried to bury
them all
In the backyard
with a shovel
But I only dug
myself a hole
Once we
were young
And lived
dangerous
But the rains
poured down
They started
to change us
We both grew
so ancient
There we were
familiar strangers
When the rains
poured down
Heaven knows
why she changed
her mind
Or she saved
her goodbyes
Over cloudy skies
we tried
With clipped wings
to fly
She was the rain
dancing in puddles
She was trouble
Once we were young
And lived dangerous
But the rains
poured down
They started
to change us
We both grew
so ancient
So there we were
familiar strangers
When the rains
poured down
Heaven knows
why she changed
her mind
Or she saved
her goodbyes
Over cloudy skies
we tried
With clipped wings
to fly
